Our Mission:
To instill value in our community and children through the sport of baseball in the Bay of Plenty.
Our Values:
One Team: We achieve great results together as one team through sportsmanship, humility and respect.
Inclusive: We are your community, Whanau, embracing diversity and open to everyone.
Fun: We are creating memories that will last a lifetime.
Honesty: We are transparent and held accountable for our actions.
Passion for Excellence: We are committed to a high standard on and off the diamond.
Tauranga City Baseball started in May 2015 at Gordon Spratt Reserve. Unable to develop the shared grounds we combined with Western Bay Softball and moved to Carlton Reserve. Both codes look forward to developing the dedicated diamond sport ground. In April 2025 we hosted the Baseball New Zealand 14U and 16U Summer Showdown NZ nationals. And we host it again in 2026.
Why baseball and softball? We are passionate about our youth being active, developing character and creating memories through new opportunities. It is fun, has many teachable moments and there are many opportunities to travel within New Zealand and overseas, with the possibility of even playing in the US through Universities. Many of our kids are just learning the sport so if you have never played, don't let that put you off. Come to one of pre-season trainings or open days to give it a go!
